Good of them to post refutations - healthier than censorship. We're seeing full Streisand Effect going on here. That being said, looks like most of their claims are "there's no evidence of that", but they've also not read her book... so doesn't make a strong case either way

"There's no evidence of that" is the only thing you can say when someone just makes something up and presents it as true The logic you're displaying is exactly how cranks get a foothold ("Well can you prove it DIDN'T happen")

That's very true, which is why it's complicated Because it's also said when there is evidence being ignored or dismissed They would have a stronger case for "there's no evidence" if they had read her book, which they admit they haven't (disclaimer: I haven't either)

Extraordinary claims do require extraordinary evidence, which these probably don't have But you can't honestly say "there's no evidence for these claims" when you really mean "I think these claims are obviously false, so I won't be spending time or money to evaluate them"
